Special to the Globe.

BARABOO, Wis, Aug. 24.-Post No.
O. G. A. r., of this place, has just had a
sensation, which has caused consider
able talk, in the shape of court mar
tial, i'll which the accused was prom
inent business man of this place and
member of the post in good standing.
The accused is man of family. and en-
ployed in his household was very pre-
possessing young domestic. 1t had
been rumOred for some time that the
servant girl had been too intimate with
the head of the household, but no steps
were taken in the matter until members
of the post deemed it necessary to inves-
tigate it for the good of the order. A
court martial was accordingly ordered.
The general charge was that of conduct
nnbeeeming a gentleman and member
of the order. The specification was
adultery. There were several witnesses
before the court martial, including the
wife of the accused, who gave some
pretty strong testimony. which seemed to
show that her husband had at least been
OH very affectionate terms with the Serv-
ant girl. The other witnesses were
neighbOrs of the accused, who cOrrObo-
rated the wife'S testimony in some par
ticularS. The worst, however, that was
shown against the accused was that he
had OH several occasions hugged and
kissed the hired girl with the utmost
enthusiasm, and that the domestic
seemed 10 enjoy the operation hugely,
and that the servant girl had reclined
upon the bed of the accused on q certain
occasion while the accused was lying
therein, although the latter was under
the bed clothes while the girl was out
side. After hearing the court martial
found the accused guilty, and sentenced
him to dishonorable discharge from the
post. The findings and sentence were
forwarded to department headquarters
at Eau Claire for action thereon by the
department commander. 1t is rumOred
that the findings and sentence have been
disapproved at department headquarters
hot because the department COM
mander. considers kissing servant girls
as conduct which is becoming gentle
man and member of the order, but be-
cause, it is understood, of certain in
fornlalities in the trial as conducted by

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
An Extraordinary Scheme of a
Noted Boston Capitalist.

San Francisco Examiner.
One of the most interesting fights ever
made for the control of railway is now
going on in New York city, and as it is
over Pacific tranScOntinental line, the
longest of any on the continent, much
curiosity and some anxiety is excited
among Pacific coast railway officials as
to the result. 1t is over the control of
the Northern Pacific that the fight is
being made, and certain points are in
volved which make the contest of the
liyelieSt and keeneSt nature. A few
days since the Examiner published a
dispatch from New York that Elijah
Smith, president of the Oregon
Transcontinental company, had is
sued circulars to stockholders and
holders of small parcels of Northern Pa
cific stock. asking their aid in forming a
new directorate and management of the
line. There was nothing startling in
this. Elijah Smith on two occasions
sentiout the same kind of circulars. But
ton property was not controlled by the
Union Pacific line. The Oregon Trans
continental company is an Oregon Nav
igation concern. 1t has been Smiths
ambition ever since the completion of
the Northern Pacific to be its president.
but the present directors, who have
beer connected with the road in their
present capacity ever since the company
organized, have been very careful to
keepit aloOf from the ambitious Boston
capitalist. The story of the latters
connection with he property dates
back to the famous times when Henry
Willard came into the financial world.
lie organized the Oregon Transconti-
METAL company to build the Northern
Pacific, the Transcontinental receiving
a certain number of shares of Northern
Pacific stock and certain amount of
money for the completion of every
twenty miles. When the Northern Pa
cific was completed the Oregon Trans
continental owned over 10000 shares of
Northern Pacific stock. Then came
Willard S failure and decapitation, and
Elijah Smith was made president of the
navigation company. which owned the
Transcontinental. and at Northern Pa
cific meetings he voted the stock coll
troiled by his company. lie now wants
to secure the proxies of small holders so
he can vote majority at the annual
meeting of the Northern Pacific in Sep
tember Now the question is, il Elijah
Smith makes himself president, will the
Union Pacific control the Northern Pa
citfc as fhe controller of the Oregon Rail-
way and Navigation company? If it
should the combination would make the
most powerful one of the kind in the
world.
